    Hi everyone I am in the process of rebuilding a Triton with a Triumph pre unit engine and box, I have recently acquired a 1971 9 stud T120 head and have a one piece big bearing crank and rods, I am short of pistons and barrels, I have been in promise land from Morgo's for the last 4 months for one of there big bore kits and out of boredom started looking for others and have come across Routt which seem to be available now at a better price can anyone give me any feedback on their kits as I have no knowledge of them at all many thanks Chris

    Routt new to me as well!:confused:

    It did occur to me, however, that perhaps standard 750cc barrels may fit. I've not got any dimensions to hand to check if that is possible, so I may be talking rubbish again, but it was just a thought.

    Take care if going down that route though. Early 750s were actually around 725cc before growing to around 745cc. Don't get them mixed up.:eek: I believe that the 725s were in production for around a year (1972?) and so will be pretty rare by now, I would have thought.

    As I say, compatibility may well be an issue, but if either/both sizes (can be made to) fit, it may be worth a go!
